Product Description
The Great Tales of Middle-earth is a beautiful box set of the three final novels of Middle-earth: The Children of Húrin, Beren and Lúthien, and The Fall of Gondolin, packaged together and ready for gifting. Completing Christopher Tolkien’s lifelong achievement as the curator of his father J.R.R. Tolkien’s manuscripts, The Great Tales features handsome color plates and maps by famed illustrator Alan Lee and a map by Christopher Tolkien.
The Children of Húrin was the first standalone story by J.R.R. Tolkien since the 1977 publication of The Silmarillion. Six thousand years before the One Ring is destroyed, Middle-earth lies under the shadow of the Dark Lord Morgoth.
Beren and Lúthien was, or became, an essential element in the evolution of The Silmarillion, the myths and legends of the First Age of the World conceived by J.R.R. Tolkien.
The Fall of Gondolin completes the set and tells the story of the legendary Elven city hidden within Middle-earth. Evil Morgoth seeks to destroy the last realm of his Elven enemies while Ulmo, Lord of the Waters, tries to protect it.
Each hardcover volume includes color plates and pencil drawings by award-winning illustrator Alan Lee together with a black and white map drawn by Christopher Tolkien.
